It is home to people of the first nations, English, French, Germans, Italians, Ukrainians, Fijians, South Asians, Middle Easterners, Vietnamese, Filipinos and most recently from the continent of Africa. All these people from different cultural and religious backgrounds live and work side by side in all neighbourhoods. Their priorities are the same: stable jobs, safe streets and good schools, so they can live peacefully and raise their children. Seniors want to retire peacefully.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2673837\" data-originallang=\"en\">My riding sends a strong message to the world that those who endorse a doctrine of hatred toward others will not succeed. I am proud to represent the good folks of Calgary East.</p>",

On y trouve des Autochtones, des Anglais, des Fran\u00e7ais, des Allemands, des Italiens, des Ukrainiens, des Fidjiens, des gens de l'Asie du Sud, des gens du Moyen-Orient, des Vietnamiens, des Philippins et, depuis peu, des Africains. Tous ces gens issus de diff\u00e9rentes cultures et religions vivent et travaillent ensemble dans tous les quartiers. Leurs priorit\u00e9s sont les m\u00eames: des emplois stables, des rues s\u00e9curitaires et de bonnes \u00e9coles, afin de pouvoir vivre paisiblement et d'\u00e9lever leurs enfants. Les personnes \u00e2g\u00e9es veulent prendre leur retraite dans la tranquillit\u00e9.</p>\n<p data-HoCid=\"2673837\" data-originallang=\"en\">Ma circonscription livre un message ferme au monde: ceux qui pr\u00e9conisent la haine envers les autres n'atteindront pas leur but. Je suis fier de repr\u00e9senter les bonnes gens de Calgary-Est.</p>"
